Tucked off one of Avondale's finest streets on an elevated 479m² freehold site, this fully fenced and gated sanctuary is a home you'll instantly want to linger in. Deliciously private and bathed in all-day sun, with off-street parking for 3–4 vehicles and exceptional privacy, it offers a tranquil retreat designed to be enjoyed.

Behind its classic façade, 1920s bungalow character has been thoughtfully enhanced by recent renovations and modern upgrades. High 2.7m stud ceilings add to the sense of space, while five Wi-Fi-controlled Mitsubishi heat pumps, an HRV system, and new ceiling and underfloor insulation create a seamless blend of timeless appeal and contemporary comfort.

Beautifully grounded by mellow oak flooring, the open-plan kitchen, dining and family living area is warm, welcoming and perfectly suited to modern life. Large French doors connect seamlessly with the outdoors, providing effortless flow between cooking, dining and entertaining. Whether you're hosting friends for summer barbecues, enjoying a quiet morning coffee or unwinding with a book in the afternoon sun, the generous decking delivers exceptional indoor-outdoor living all year round.

The separate lounge adds another dimension, creating a quieter space away from the main family hub.

Four well proportioned bedrooms are complemented by a stylishly renovated family bathroom featuring a freestanding soaking tub and skylight. Ample storage throughout, including a large attic space with a fold-down ceiling ladder, ensures everything has its place. A second toilet and fully fitted utility room add further practicality.

Brilliantly located on an elevated stretch on the Mt Albert border, with Heron Park, Browne St. for your coffee fix, the train station, and Avondale's buzzing town centre all just a short stroll away. Close to Unitec and Avondale College, with Te Hono set to add even more vibrancy to the area. Easy SH16/SH20 access and just 10km to the CBD. This is the perfect retreat to balance work and life.
